Q. How do I use Prospector services outside of DU?

Prospector services are temporarily suspended at DU beginning on Saturday, April 30th, but you can still access this service at public libraries in the Denver Metro area. Here's how to do so from Denver Public Library.

The University of Denver Libraries is in the process of migrating to a new catalog system. As part of this process, we need to temporarily suspend Prospector services beginning on April 30, 2016 until late summer.

During the suspension of services, you will not be able to request items through the University of Denver, but you can still access Prospector from another area library.

Here are some tips from the Denver Public Library (DPL) to help you get started:

Don't have a library card with DPL?
As a Colorado resident or a student at a Colorado University, you are eligible for one. Check out DPL's guide to Get a Library Card to find out how easy it is to sign up.

If you have any questions about requesting Prospector items through other local libraries, or about other requesting options during the temporary suspension of DU's access to Prospector, please contact the Lending Desk (303-871-3707) or the Research Center at University Libraries.
